booost technologies, Inc. (Shinagawa, Tokyo; CEO:Hirokazu Aoi), which supports the acceleration of corporate SX through its integrated SX platform, "Sustainability ERP*," held a practical course on product-level Carbon Footprint (CFP) calculation on August 8th, 2024. This course, designed for a small group of CFP professionals, provided in-depth training on calculating the Carbon Footprint of Products (CFP). Participants gained insights into effective customer disclosure practices and explored practical approaches for reducing GHG emissions.

Participants deepened their understanding of CFP calculation through discussions with Mr. Shibata, our Chief Sustainability Officer (CSuO), who brought extensive CFP experience from his years at Kao Corporation. As the course instructor, Mr. Shibata guided them in the system simulation configurations and practical CFP tasks. The participants also collaborated with one another to explore the establishment of systems and calculation practices tailored to their respective companies.

 

 

■Background of the Course

One of the concrete measures to reduce CO2 emissions is the calculation of the Carbon Footprint of Products (CFP). CFP is the amount of GHG emissions and absorption across the entire lifecycle of a product or service, from raw material procurement to disposal and recycling, converting these into CO2 emissions. This approach not only allows companies to visualize the CO2 emissions of their products and services but also helps them calculate their contributions to reducing these emissions. Alongside establishing systems for calculating GHG emissions from Scope 1 to 3, an increasing number of companies are adopting and considering CFP calculations.

 Additionally, as the demand for transparency in emissions across the supply chain and for individual products and services accelerates, buyers are increasingly requiring suppliers to disclose the CFP of their products, making it urgent for practitioners to address these needs promptly.

 The "Carbon Footprint Guideline" released by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) serves as a reference for CFP calculation. However, the approach to involving the entire company, determining the extent of calculation, and utilizing the calculated CFP can vary significantly from one company to another. This has become a challenge for many practitioners, including our clients.

 To address these needs, we have launched a small-group course designed to teach participants the CFP calculation procedures, data interpretation, and strategies for engaging relevant stakeholders within the company, enabling them to apply this knowledge to practice.
